Gomis and huwbert just leaving Marriot on 00:13 - Jun 25 by londonlisa2001 | I was referring to Dwight! We will soon find out whether this is true if they announce a 3 years contract tomorrow won't we. |
That was sarcasm by the way. Reputable and The Mirror in the same sentence, that if muttered again may cause the planet to implode. Needless to say, take it with a pinch of salt. | |

Gomis and huwbert just leaving Marriot on 00:45 - Jun 25 with 2588 views | scottishjack | So, we are on the brink of a major signing, people who clearly have a better idea than I do on how these things work (money wise) seem to have a grasp on what the club are doing, and yet some other folks on here have complaints that the board must be mad? Wasn't it a lack of ambition that the board were being accused of last Summer when we didn't pay a large transfer fee for the same guy? | | | |

oh I know - I as just wondering why Dwight has taken it as gospel and starting to slate the board for it given that he keeps telling us all that we're not a small club anymore and should set our sights higher. | | | |

I agree - and the people who've been slating us for not setting our sights higher are now criticising. I think this is a major coup if we get this guy and shows an incredible ambition by the board. Also rather knocks all the 'Monk will never be able to sign a major player - he has no contacts' etc stuff into touch. | | | |

Let's not forget, he's turned 'bigger' clubs down, so we must be doing something right surely. And HuwJ has his head on for figures... And we should be confident he knows what he's doing. | |

Gomis and huwbert just leaving Marriot on 08:10 - Jun 25 with 2051 views | AnotherJohn | I am beginning to wonder about Ash. It seems that he was one of the group who connived to get Laudrup out, and now may have views on which Spanish players should stay. However, with his best mate now installed as manager, it seems that Ash is looking to extract a big pay off. Is that what economists call rent seeking behaviour? I'd like to keep him, but he isn't making it easy. | | | |

I'd like Ash to stay, BUT, signing on fee??? FFS, he's not signing with a new club, he'd be signing a new contract, which would give him a huge pay increase, AND he wants a signing on fee??? If these figures are right, 3M signing on fee or 6M transfer fee - so, we either say yes to the 3M or sell him and have up to 9M to invest in a new player. No brainer, for me Of course, this could be all agent and media BS. | |

Please say this is a joke? Thanks, but no thanks Ash. Been a quality player for us over the years, but that would be silly spending. | | | |

If it is confirmed, the bizarre thing about this signing is that if anyone is due a credit it is in fact Laudrup, given that Gomis was his number 1 target as widely reported last summer. See for example: Swansea chase Bafetimbi Gomis in hope transfer will convince boss Michael Laudrup not to quit http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/swansea-transfers-bafetimbi And given the renewed chatter about Gylfi if anything these moves are worryingly suggestive of a lack of fresh ideas -- from anyone. | |

Pretty good example of grasping at straws there. We tried to sign this player under our last manager, but didn't, so if we sign him now, we should credit the previous manager? Also never heard Fabianski mentioned before this summer. | |

Just because we go in for a player we have tried to get before, you say it is a lack of fresh ideas. I think it's a good player we want and we are getting him now instead of then. | | | |

I'd be quite happy for Gylfi to come back. Him and Pablo for the "10" role would be very nice IMO. Would also make the 3 behind the centre forward more fluid... IMO of course | |

You omit the context of my reply, but since you ask then yes; obviously we should credit the guy who actually talent spotted Gomis for talent spotting him rather than Monk as the post I was replying to demanded. | |

So you know for a fact that Laudrup personally identified Gomis as a potential signing last summer? Not one of our scouting team possibly? | |

Gomis and huwbert just leaving Marriot on 10:05 - Jun 25 with 1642 views | Generation_Terrorist | Anyone think we'll see him holding up the shirt before the end of the day, or is there any truth to the rumours that he's doing an Ince-esque tour of other clubs first? | |

Do I have first hand knowledge of Laurdup's wish list? No. Was it reported in practically every newspaper in the country? Yes. | |
